i-on Spa Review: Old Course Hotel, St Andrews

An unexpected Mother’s Day gift of a voucher for the Kohler Waters Spa at St Andrews Old Course Hotel brought with it a whole new perspective on the historic town.

And relax..

A lofty perspective of sheer indulgence, as I relaxed in the rooftop hot tub, marvelling at the beautiful skyline. The pristine feeling of white robes and slippers in a five star hotel takes the shoulders down an inch or two, as did a signature massage. The deep relaxation and thermal suite was first class.

A top tip: I used the remainder of my voucher on breakfast – normally a feast for staying guests but you can also pay as a visitor – and it was one of the best I’ve experienced anywhere in the world. A truly international mix of people and with a view of the Old Course to boot.
